Mussorgsky: Pictures At An Exhibition. Khachaturian: Spartacus Suite. Kabalevsky. Shchedrin. Rachmaninov

A Russian orchestral showcase from Vasily Petrenko and the award willing Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra present a programme of Russian orchestral classics - with some surprises! Ravel's brilliant orchestration of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition and Khachaturian's sumptuously romantic suite from his ballet 'Spartacus' with its famous 'Adagio' keep company with Kabalevsky's fizzing overture to his opera 'Colas Breugnon' and Schehedrin's 'Naughty Limericks plus a wistful Rachmaninov song in beautiful orchestral arrangement.
